                               Perseverance Sol 354

      Explanation: This Navcam mosaic from Perseverance looks out over the   
      car-sized rover's deck, across the floor of Jezero crater on Mars.   
      Frames used to construct the mosaic view were captured on mission sol   
      354. That corresponds to Earth calendar date February 17, 2022, nearly   
      one Earth year after the rover's landing. With a mass of over 1,000   
      kilograms, six-wheeled Perseverance is the heaviest rover to touch down   
      on Mars. During its first year of exploration the rover has collected   
      six (so far) rock core samples for later return to planet Earth, served   
      as the base station for Ingenuity, the first helicopter on Mars, and   
      tested MOXIE (Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment),   
      converting some of the Red PlanetCÇÖs thin, carbon dioxide-rich   
      atmosphere into oxygen.
